The Dawning of Tess

By Gail Hogan

"They're making me hire a woman. It might as well be you."

With those cryptic words from her soon-to-be-boss at a radio station, new college graduate Tess Corbin entered the working world. It's 1984, and women were just beginning to occupy desks in radio and TV newsrooms, and Tess is optimistic and determined to live out her dream as a working reporter.

As challenging as the world can be after life on campus, Tess came across some surprising mentors to launch her life and career. As a reporter, Tess found herself in the middle of disasters, landed her back stage with rock stars, and facing struggles in a male dominated profession. The new adult world involves looking for a job, succeeding in that job, meeting new friends, while navigating matters of the heart.
